Brute Force Overshoot

The result of releasing all of one's power, unexpectedly, at the height of applied force.

A Brute Force Overshoot is what happens when you apply all of your might to opening a bag of chips only to fling them all over the kitchen, or when you bang your knuckles as the wrench suddenly comes off of that pesky rusted nut, sending your hand uncontrollably forward.
